Out with Mickey’s Halloween Party, in with Mickey’s Christmas Party!

This past week marked the end of Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party for the 2013 Halloween Season. I know from hearing feedback from TMSM Members and from my Cast Member friends, this is was a successful run and people had a great time. That being said, we only have a few days till the Christmas Season begins at Disney Parks. Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is next to bring in the Holiday cheer to Magic Kingdom goers!

In case you aren’t familiar, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is a separate ticket event that takes place on select nights at Magic Kingdom Park throughout November and December. Parties give you an opportunity to celebrate with snow flurries on Main Street, U.S.A., Disney characters in holiday attire, and very special entertainment offerings, including Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmastime Parade and Cinderella Castle Dream Lights. For the first time this year, the Celebrate the Magic! castle projection show and Holiday Wishes: Celebrate the Spirit of the Season fireworks will be enhanced with “Glow With The Show” ears – what an amazing sight this will be!

Also new for this year, attendees can experience Jingle Cruise, the first-ever holiday transformation of the Jungle Cruise attraction, which will feature seasonal decor, new holiday jokes and more. Party goers can also pick up a complimentary, event exclusive Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom Card that features Donald’s nephews. And when it comes to character greeting opportunities, look for Merida’s Fairytale Garden to stay open for parties this year. This year’s parties will take place from 7 p.m.-midnight on November 8, 11, 14, 15, 17, 21 and 22, and December 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19 and 20. Be sure to share your photos with TMSM if you’re attending this magical event!
